4. Conclusion

The paper deals with a historical construction technique typical of the Mediterranean area and in particular of the regions of south Italy as Calabria and Puglia. This technique is characterized by the use of special hollow clay bricks called fictile tubules. For the aim of this work, experimental and analytical analyses were conducted in order to evaluate the behavior of an arch built with fictile tubule bricks. The experimental results obtained for the not strengthened arch and for the strengthened arch were validated by an analytically approach based on the study of the section at 45° mostly stressed during the test. In the first case, the difference between the experimental and analytical value is equal to about 200 N, while for the second case it is 30 N. In future works, a numerical model of the reinforced arch will be created with a software based on finite elements in order to investigate the behavior of this structure with the application of FRCM.
